Medusa’s Journey Earrings

Real shed snakeskin, preserved and set into sterling-plated pendants. Medusa didn't need a mirror, and neither does this piece.

Using actual sloughed snakeskin, each pendant is a tiny relic, the snake's own ritual of transformation caught in metal. It reads gothic without screaming it, the kind of thing you wear to a museum opening or a black metal show and it fits either room. The mythology does the heavy lifting.

Pressed shed snakeskin set in a sterling silver-plated pendant, hanging from a rhodium chain with stainless steel hooks.
